I'm guessing the missing piece of this for the OP is the "once a month" bit.

There are two basic technologies at play here:

1. Send an email to multiple recipients: ActiveMail is that bit.
2. Do something periodically, e.g., once per month: ActiveJob is that bit.

For #1, Colin's already pointed you at it.
For #2, start with looking at the ActiveJob guide:
http://guides.rubyonrails.org/active_job_basics.html and investigating cron
and the whenever gem, sidekiq, resque, and so on.
